SUNDAY POST SUMMER–CALENDARS, SHOWS, STRUGIS AND BABES Photo by RFR Hey, it’s a wonderful fuckin’ day. The weather is perfect for barbecues. We’re not being bombed, and the women are beautiful. We need to simplfy our lives some, but you gotta admit that life in the States couldn’t be much better. Think about it. I
SIZZLING SUNDAY POST–RIGHT-OF-WAY-LAW WINS, RON FINCH WINS, HIGHBARS WIN AND MORE photo by RFR I’m awake I swear. We stood in the street and drag raced John Covington, Steed Muscle Bikes down Alameda Boulevard until 1:00 in the morning. John’s configuration for custom bikes is all about performance and handling. His prices are also reasonable.

MONSTER GARAGE SUNDAY, GIRLS ARE TAKING OVER, DAVID MANN NEEDS US, KEITH’S HIGHSPEED CODE AND BILLY LANE It’s the day before the I go to work for Monster Garage. I need to get some sleep. Jesse said in MM3 that he quit drinkin’. I drank enough for both of us last night, then this morning
SUNDAY DAD’S DAY, A TRIBUTE, BALTIMORE SURVELLIANCE, H-D FLAME JOBS, PROJECT BIKES AND WAR TALES Happy Father’s Day goddamnit. If you’re a father, stick with it. I mentioned, in the last Cantina drama, that it’s okay to ditch a bad ol’ lady as long as kids are not involved. Then you’re stuck, because, together, you’ve
SUNDAY MARGARITAS POST–GIRLS, SKATEBOARD HELMET LAWS COMIN’, NEW HANDLEBARS AND PAINT JOBS AND SEX Bikernet photog RFR with the women he loves to capture. I’m a blithering nut case this morning. Too many margaritas last night and not enought sex. Here’s a strange code I came up with one lonely night in the Wilmington ghetto.
SUNDAY POST BLUES–FREEDOM LOST, BUT HOT BABES TO KEEP OUR NIGHTS WARM I’m buried in blown-in insulation as we cut the walls of the shop for the balcony. Just when we had the garage somewhat set, we tore it to shreds. We finally gave up the cleaning process in the afternoon, showered and headed out
MEMORIAL DAY SUNDAY POST–RUNNIN’ TO THE NEXT BARBEQUE It’s the Sunday before Memorial Day. There’s a reclusive code in LA: Stay off the freeways on holidays. It’s wild, half of the 13 million population of LA county are on the road all weekend and the other half is loading up at Home Depot for a
SUNDAY POST BEFORE NOON–IT’S A MIRACLE–RIGHT OF WAY LAWS MAY COME TO PASS–GET INVOLVED The blonde is Elizabeth Castillo who is working hard to make the David Mann Benefit a success.

SUNDAY POST LATE–VIRUS ATTACK, CHINA FLU AND HANGOVERS ARE BEING INVESTIGATED Hey, just when I think the Headquarters projects are manageable I’m hit with a half dozen more. I’m sure you can dig it, if you have ever bought a fixer-upper or your girlfriend started riding, and you now have two bikes to build or
SUNDAY POST MADNESS–NEW GANG LAW, TEXAS HARRASSMENT AND NEW FRAMES I’m still shaking from last night. I took my mom out for Dinner and a walked through downtown Long Beach’s art walk. I tripped on the buildings, art deco architecture and the House of Hayden Bar. Got my juices flowing regarding the Cantina and the
SUNDAY POST CELEBRATION–IT’S MOTORCYCLE MONTH ACROSS THE COUNTRY It’s a warm Summer like Sunday and the road is calling. The other night Spring clammored in the air. The Cantina partied with six woman and three guys out front while I hid out in the shop with the woman of my dreams. We listened to the
SUNDAY POST–LAUGHLIN SURVIVES, KEN MILLER PROJECT, BILL FURR HURT AND UPS TERRORISTS Helluva weekend. Non-stop, we hauled ass to Laughlin on Thursday at 5:30 in the morning escaping the city. We ducked most of the traffic, some mist but not the wind. I leaned the King over as we entered the desert and cut a
SUNDAY SUNNY POST–THE LAUGHLIN FEVER GROWS My new anti-stress mouse from S&C Wish I knew where to start. We fired the Amazing Shrunken FXR yesterday. It’s a bad-ass little hot rod. It sparked right to life, 88-inches of street fighter. I’ll try to run a report on my wiring job next week. Giggie from Compu-Fire
SUNDAY POST EASTER REPORT–IT’S GRIZZLY It’s Easter and the sun’s glistening off the harbor. We should ride. Here’s the report on the headquarters. New high-tech florescents were installed, mirror installed in the gym and I popped for a Muffler Masters 3-inch tube bender which I’ll roll into the shop tomorrow. Tomorrow the electrician installs three
SUNDAY POST–ARIZONA RAIN, NUDITY WRONG, RED LIGHT LAWS AND NEW BELT DRIVE I wasn’t expected to roll in until this afternoon. I hit it for Arizona on a 2004 Victory Kingpin and started dodging rain within the first 50 miles, a bad omen. I hooked up with the rest of the group in Yucca Valley
SUNDAY POST ROCKS–NEW PARTS, OLD SCHOOL, H-D COLLEGE AND COP CAMERAS ON EVERY CORNER My to-do list just broke all records. Fixin’ the heads, runs to Home Depot and planning a run to Arizona tops the list. We’re launchin’ the Jose Daytona Report this morning and I’m going to wire the Shrunken FXR this week.
SUNDAY MADNESS, PACING THE DECKS, NEW FRAMES, HELMET REPEAL AND A DOG DOWN Strange times at the headquarters. We’ve been packed and ready to rock for (it seems) weeks. We’re at the far end of three escrows and the first one was held up last week due to incompetence. We were stuck dragging our feet
CRAZED SUNDAY POST–DAYTONA REPORTS, BAD JOKES AND NEW FRAMES Life is nuts, but goddamnit it’s spine tingling. Never a dull moment, is one of my creeds. There’s too much shit going on to mention. We’re moving. I’m writing this surrounded by boxes, the garage is a mess, life is in turmoil. We’ll report on the

SUNDAY POST VALENTINES DAY HANGOVER–RIGHT-OF-WAY LAWS RULE FOR RANDY SCOTT Here’s a Hal Robinson classic from the ’70s, submitted by Mustang Jack. Happy Belated Valentines Day. My night wasn’t packed with wild sex, unfortunately. That’s what happens when two women don’t see nipple to nipple. I suffered through with hot chow from a local hole-in-the-wall

SUNDAY POST–125-INCH TWIN CAM, JANKLOW GOES TO JAIL, AND SLICK SHIT Hey, it’s fuckin’ beautiful on the coast. I hope some bros are on the road.
